http vs https

[edwardsjj]

At work, I manage about 35 WAPs (models:1100/1200)using HTTP. My security office is requiring me to use https. My question is, do the WAPs even support HTTPS? Does anyone else have this situation. How do I satify the Security Office? Thank you for any assistance.

In the WebGUI, under the "Services | HTTP" tab, you can select a checkbox for HTTP or HTTPS and associate whatever ports you'd like.

Good Luck

Thanks for this great tip! Now, can the WLSE (1130, v 2.12) be setup to link to the HTTPS interface of all APs, as opposed to the HTTP interface? Even though I enabled HTTPS on my APs, the WLSE still wants to send me to the HTTP interface when I click on an IP link from the WLSE.

Is my only option to rediscover all APs?

You can also use SSH. Once you turn on HTTPS the web GUI is painfully slow.
